Arrived around 5PM on a Saturday and had reserved a pre-paid room/rate. Decided that for just one night the Gold Floor (which I have used before) wasn't worth the money. Upgraded on arrival to a room on the 23rd (top) floor with a queen bed and a view of the harbor. Room furnishings in excellent repair; wireless internet not the... More

Lovely location beside the conference centre with views across the harbour. Arrived after long trip from UK with two separate bookings that didn't really suit our requirements. On checking in we were assisted by Carly who happily amended our booking to give us a two bedroom suite which we had struggled to book online - it was perfect with panoramic... More

Stayed for 4 nights with my son on a weekend getaway. We had only outstanding service and loved the hotel. Request a room with a harbour view and it is completely worth it. My 11 year old was fascinated watching the seaplanes, cruise ships, freighters, ferries, helicopters etc.. it is also a very scenic view. The hotel is conveniently located... More

Our stayed at the Fairmont Waterfront in February 2012 was very impressive. The service and attention to detail was excellent. One the most enjoyable parts of our holiday. We arrived very late but nothing was too much trouble for them. Location was great, everything was easy to get to. An absolutely wonderful experience. We also stayed at the Fairmont Banff... More

I travel a fair amount for work. I stayed 2 nights at the Fairmont Waterfront for business in May. The hotel service was 5-star!! I normally don't notice "service" one way or the other, but service is what stood out the most. The room was also exceptionally nice and unusually clean. The bed was extraordinarily comfortable. Despite my room being... More

This is the second time I've stayed here for a couple of days. I love everything about this hotel. It is classy but not stuffy -- they don't have a cow if you wear jeans in the lobby. The bar and restaurant are very nice. Service is impeccable. The rooms are very comfortable (get one with a harbour view--stunning). I... More

The Waterfront is as it says on the waterfront, and as previous reviews state, try to get a harbour view high up. We were on the 18th floor and it was magical, even at night with lights reflecting on the water. Room was spacious with very comfy bed and good sized bathroom. Very close to Gastown. We caught the hop... More

This hotel has a great location just across from the bay, so get a room facing the water and up high enough to really see the view. The lobby is lovely and the rooms are nice. I found the beds too soft to suit me. The Le Labo toiletries were fabulous! The hotel has an apiary on the roof, and... More

Just stayed here for a meeting at the convention center across the street. The hotel staff stood out for being very responsive. I was checked in quickly and when I had trouble with my bill (got charged for opening minibar when all I used was the complimentary milk), they quickly rectified the problem. The facility was clean and very convenient... More

This Fairmont Waterfront Hotel is in a good location and this is a nice hotel to stay. But, it just a bit expensive....... The Gym area is Small; however the outdoors pool, indoors hot pool, and steam room are acceptable. If you only paid for the basic rate, you will not get the room with a harbour/water view. Only if...
